For 2015, flooring trends, particularly carpet are all about change, and change could help any home standout. Homeowners this year should not be afraid of bright textures and colors. The warmth, comfort and simplicity provided by carpet makes it a time-honored favorite. Nothing compares to taking the shoes off and sinking the feet into a soft, luxurious carpet or the look of a beautifully designed carpet that complements the furnishings of a room.
This year sees lesser friezes and shags, and more textured and patterned carpets. By using a method that combines loops and cut loops, so the name cut and loop carpeting, manufacturers could make carpeting with patterns that range from subtle to bold. What is more exciting is that the new technology is manufacturing carpet with amazingly soft fibers. One could get a carpet that impresses and makes one curl in a ball and lay down.
A major shift in new products is into layered color as well as soft texture carpet. A combination of pattern and texture would always be popular since it minimizes vacuum and soil marks. Furthermore, the texture and color provide more distinctive fashion appeal and styling. Textured and patterned cut-and-loop carpets are stylish and appear to be always popular because they could minimize footprints. Textured carpeting is durable and soft with different pile heights. Nylon fibers have also become softer and softer with technology advancements, so it is possible to have durable looped flooring that is soft as well. Whether its squares, diamonds or subtle strips, a lot of people love patterned carpeting.
The comfort factor of carpets has never been so high, thus comfort is key when choosing the right carpet material. Whatever flooring one chooses, whether carpet, hardwood flooring, cork, bamboo and others, it should be serviceable for the lifestyle. Moreover, for those who are renovating an older home or building a new one, the flooring choices are endless. Where to lay the carpeting would determine the color, style and texture of the floor covering, taking into account the use of the space, the budget and the home furnishings. Creative designs and advances in technology means there is a carpet to suit every room in a house.
In terms of carpeting color, neutrals would always be safe, but a little dash of vivid carpeting could have a huge impact. High traffic places like stairs and hallways need a durable, strong carpet in a forgiving hue, like a level loop pile in a striped or moderately dark color. Moreover, coir and sisal are ideal for busy areas too. Natural flooring is going towards longer loops, chunky, big spun yarns and deeper shades, like chocolate browns or charcoal. The rustic style also has an influence on the flooring colors. In neutrals, consider creams and warm and cool grey tones. On the other hand, there are blues, reds, lilacs and plums. Hallways and other small spaces are the areas to play with color. A homeowner could have fun with colors without it being overwhelming.
Carpets are great, they serve numerous purposes. They are particularly great during the cold winter months because of their insulation properties. Furthermore, they also absorb noise. A carpeting could also visually define a space. In general, most rooms in a house need the type of flooring. It adds a nice dost of print and texture to an otherwise plain room.
